There’s no catch here: this is a zoo, and you sleep in a room on the grounds. See some of your options
here in the slideshow. They’ll fall into one of the following three
“precincts”:

Jungle Bungalows
These suites have glass panels in the walls, so you can have staring contests with tigers, bears and whatnot
from inside (including from the bathtub). Where you’ll undoubtedly look extra delicious to the carnivorous
beasts.

uShaka Lodge
A lodge with a 200,000-liter aquarium, a pool and seven suites. Request the Shark Grand Suite. It’s on its
own private floor, but, more importantly, it connects to a terrace atop the shark tank, where you can feed
the sharks yourself. Hence the name.

Giraffe Tree Houses
A private enclosure that overlooks the Molonglo River. Oh, and the mouth of Hummer. That’s the resident
giraffe you’re feeding from the balcony.
